Our Great "Century" Distribution Ends
at 10 P. M. Tonight
Within the next few hours you must decide and act. For two weeks we have pointed out to
s
you, day after day, the wonderful opportunity presented NOW, of securing th6 one best reference
work. We can never renew this offer. Tonight ends for once and all our reduced price distribution
of
10 Massive Volume ; 319 Maps; 8.000 Illustrations; 180.000 Encyolopsdio Sub
jects; 300,000 Geographical En trie; 300.O00 Quotations; 600,000 Encyclopedic Dic
tionary Definitions ; Sis of Volumes, 18x9 U Inches.
In the regular way of selling The Century through book agents ,to whom big commissious are-paid it would be simply im
possible to turn over these ten superb volumes to you on anything like the terms just now available. The present price and terms,
indeed, are only made possible through the Cosmopolitan magazine's effort to add quickly a large number of desirable new sub
scribers to its list. The Century set is the supreme inducement. The Cosmopolitan knew that to make the offer attractive and
popular the price had to be reduced to bring the work within easy reach of all. The Cosmopolitan sacrificed all present profit
for itself, resting content with the increased circulation sure to follow an increase which would naturally command higher adver
tising rates. And so the price was scaled down to the lowest notch, making it possible to offer
The $80 "CENTURY" for Only 59.50
Including The Cosmopolitan Magazine for a Full Year.

Thirty-One Appleton Persons Follow

ALL MEMBERS OF HIS CHURCH
(onxrric.tloniil Mlnlnlfr the Moin
Who Has l.ert Children of
lirael Into the Land of
Canaan. ,
Oiiialm linn Rallied an Increased popula
tion of thjrty-one persons during the. last
two monthn from Appleton. Wta.
There Is food for thought In thla Interest
ing fact for both mathematician and Bible
' students. For tho : mathematicians It pre
sents this problem: If Omaha gains thirty
one persons In two months from one city
In Che United States, how many persons
will Omaha gain In a year from 'oil the
cities and towns of the United Ststes?;
For the Bible students It presents some
of the features of the exodus of the chil
dren of Israel from Kgypt. The thirty-one
pfjarina1 who canio from Appleton were
vA nbr-r of the congregation of Rev. Pr.
radert'ek ,T. House, who haa recently
taken up the pastorate of the First Con
gregational church of Omaha. To carry
cmt this figure Rev. fir. Rouse takes the
partT of Moses and the thirty-one former
cltlxen of Appleton the psrt,of the Israel
ites, though Dr. Rouse really gets Into the
promised land. It Is not easy, however, to
fit Appleton, Wis., to the part of Egypt.
That ancient country, it will be remem
bered, was scourged with manyplagues,
and there the Israelites were compelled
to do grievous tasks, to make bricks with-,
out straw and to feel the whip of the task-,
master upon their backs. But Appleton,
Wis., according to the best reports. Is a
beautiful place In no way resembling
Egypt.
. Still, those thirty-one who have come
to Omaha consider this a better place to
live than Appleton, and, therefore, Omahn
can be made to assume the part of the land
of Canaan.
Merely a Coincidence.
The phenomenon of this migration of pas
tor and people to a new city Is merely one
of coincidence. The sheep did not follow
necessarily- because the shepherd, lod, but
btcayse they happened to hear of green
pastures In Omaha at the same time that
tho call cane from here to the minister.
And so it happtns they are all here to
gether and most of them are attending the
First Congregational church and listening
CP the sermons of their former pastor.
These are the names of some of the Ap
pletonlans who have come: Mr. and Mrs.
Rufus Wing, Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Wing;
George W. Raue and family (the Wing
brothers and Mr. Raue compose the West
ern I'lumbing ana Heating company),
George Llckert, who has Just -taken one
of the principal positions In the Union Ta
clflc mechanical departmei, and Harold
Zonne, who haa come to t,;e city No work
on the new Union Pacific motor cars, and
W. J. Bmlth.wlth thrlr families, are also
among the new arrivals from Appleton who
were members of Dr. Rouse's church there.
Mr. Smith is freight agent for the North
western at its new terminals. Dr. Rouse's
wife and three children arrived In the city
Friday morning. Dr. Rouse and his fam
ily will live at 610 North Twenty-first street.
There are several other families In Ap
pleton which probably"" will move to Omaha
within tho next few months. Among these
Is Harvey Wing, a member of the plumb
ing firm mentioned above.

expense, . and does the work every time.
If you mall a want ad to The Bee at mid

It will be printed the next afternoon and

you would try this want filling; method

A TREACHEROUS TROUBLE
The headaches and dizzy feelings .
that trouble so 'many persons, are'
often but symptoms of kidney com
plaint.
Kidney diseases are very treacher-!
otls. They come on llently, gain J
ground rapidly, ana cause mousanaa
of deaths that could have been pre
vented by treatment In the beginning.
Nature gives early warnings of
every disease, If you would but note
and heed them. Backache, twinges of
pain when stooping or lifting, head
aches, faint spells and urinary dis
orders are among the first warnings of
kidney trouble.
If these aignals are unheeded, there
comes a ateady, dull, heavy aching In
the back and loins, a noticeable weak
ness and loss of flesh, rheumatic at
tacks, weakening of the sight. Irreg
ular heart action, languor, attacks of
gravel, irregular passages of the kid
ney secretions, sediment, painful, acald
it sensation, dropsical bloating, etc.
But there is no need to suffer long.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure all kidney
troubles. Thla remedy has made a
reputation for quick relief and lasting
cures. It is a simple compound of
pure roots and herba that have a dl-
Pre
1
rect action on the kidneys. It waa
the secret 76 years ago wTan old Qua
ker lady. It was given to the public
by James Doan, a druggist, and is now
known and recommended the whole
world over.
Home cures prove the value of
Doan's Kidney Pills to our readers.
OJIAHA PKOOF.
Mrs. 8. J. Oaymore, of 1209 Arbor
St., Omaha, Neb., says: "I did not
say one word too much about Doan's
Kidney Pills in my statement given
in the spring of 1899. and which haa
been published In our Omaha papers.
The remedy proved the permanency
of its cure by keeping me free all the
time from any trouble with the kidney
secretions. I tried other remedies,
but derived little or no benefit from
them. Doan's Kidney Pills were In
every sense of the word a perfect sue.
cess in my case and since using them.
I have never bad a symptom which
would fn any way indicate kidney
trouble. .My son places great value
on Doan's Kidney Pills. Their use
cured him of kidney complaint and
backache. We are ever ready to rec
ommend this sterling remedy."
